In what way is it easier to monitor for vandalism? I don't see it. If anything, I'd think it'd be easier, actually. If someone vandalizes [[Davik Kang]] and someone else vandalizes [[Siri Tachi]] I'd rather have two entries in my watchlist than one (if I only had one I might actually miss the first bit of vandalism). And what if someone vandalizes the redirect? I don't see any validity to the argument that these mega-articles are easier to maintain.
Makes reuse harder, too. Half of the article's history is hidden in the redirect from before the merge (or deleted, which is a copyvio) and the other half is mixed in with edits to all the other subsections of the omnibus article. If one wants to just reuse the material on one part of the omnibus one has to go on a revision history scavenger hunt to fully comply with the GFDL.
